I am an older gal that has tried for many years to get rid of the pooch of a tummy. I have always been taunted all my life for being very thin, never believing, that I would ever have any excess fat. I blamed the hysterectomy, my doctor said it's heredity. My wonderful husband loves me just the way I am, but I am doing this procedure for me, myself, and I. I am elated to have found this website and many TT sistas. I have learned a great deal through your preparations and experiences. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

Slept most of the day when I arrived back home. Not in any pain, just had a headache that has finally gone away. I have a dining room chair by the bed to help me get in and out. Also, I have a sturdy step ladder by the toilet - that has helped getting up and down. ugggg .... I have the hiccups this morning .... need more coffee!

My doctor asked if I was nervous before going into the OR - nope! She and her staff had put me at ease as to what to expect and I had complete confidence in her.

Nice to see older ladies having it done - I was worried that I was too old. I'm 62 and after talking about this for years I'm finally having it done. I'm not much overweight - just have the stomach and puffy waist. I was only going for Lipo, but opted for the tummy tuck and lipo - no sense going half way, right. My date is September 5th and I'm really excited to see a flat stomach and waist again! Love to hear about your recovery and compare notes.

Good for you, second chance! Age is just a number, right?! Sept. will be here before you know it! ;)

Went to visit with my dr. she is a 1/2 hour ride away, wished I had taken a pill for nauseous. She said I was really swollen and bruised. Her assistant loosen the binder - that thing is so uncomfortable! I think it was ordered for XX Tall Men! Can only eat lightly - applesauce and soup.
